My Stogies No Longer

[chippewastud79]

Perhaps moving on from this thread and trying an introduction in the New Gorilla Forum and contributing some to other threads might be a better course of action than trying to correct everyone who was being cautious about an initially suspicious thread.

my SWAG here, one reason not to file, it would be false

So he doesn't post much, if at all...big friggin deal. I know a lot of people here who rarely post. Hell, I don't post as much these days with all the BS/political/piling on type threads. Could he be leading into something trying to troll for freebies?? Maybe, but until he casts that line into the water....Get off his back!

Thank You for your kind words.

very true. It doesn't have to be a outright question, but more of a subtle hint.

Especially here at CS. Some gorillas are too generous for their own good. A number of asshats that scammed many smokes from the jungle can attest to that.

is that a hint? ROFL

Im not saying the story is false, but Im also not saying I believe it either. I use the word "caution" with what I have witnessed over the many years on boards dating waaaaaaaaaaaaaay back to the old days of ASC (many of you may not have even heard of ASC *Alt Smoking Cigars*) is folks taking advantage of other folks.
As many here have witnessed, sometimes its petty, other times utterly stunning. I've seen box passes go *poof* into the night, never to be seen again, once with cigars totaling near the $1K mark.
Ive once witnessed a cigars for the troops collections disappear in thin air, with the poster never returning.
I've seen guys send money to others for 3 cigars only to recieve nothing.



I say "caution" with a little experience.

Well if you don't then why get in the middle of it.. I am surprise I see some names in here.. I honestly tought this place had some class, and the decenty to have trust in one another..

Everyone gets burned welcome to being human.. If you have never been burned then your kidding yourself...

To me no it doesn't matter if it is kosher or not I keep my negativity to myself until I see stuff like this.. It by far more sad to see Elder Gorilla's point a finger then this thread being a fising thread or not.. Frankly I would love this being a fishing thread then what I have seen out of many people I respect around here...

Take my comments as they are because they are mine only.

Some people have more intuition than others. I don't often have my hackles raised, so to speak, but when they are, there is usually a reason. A few brothers here can attest to that.

I should add that I do not know whether this is a fishing post, or a valuable lesson to be learned about trusting people in your home.

Thank God there are other gorillas that are not so willing to believe everything that is posted and will warn about possible trouble. I don't know about you but when a FOG speaks, I listen closely.

If some had done this type of questioning we wouldn't have been scammed in the past. Remember this scumbag? Nobody questioned him until it was too late. http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/showthr...48#post1341048

[SMcGregor]

I've seen one person come through... something about his house burning down... I know a lot of people got caught in thought. But because of that everyone is guilty?

Maybe I am a glass half full type of person. I didn't get caught because I don't trust anyone that I don't know.. Trust with me is like respect you earn it, it doesn't come free.. But I still don't make people guilty because I don't them..

With that being said I think we are in the dead horse derby.. We can agree on disagreeing on this subject...

by those rules, we should not trust the OP
